Waltham Forest 2-1 Hackney Wick

Forest returned to winning ways with a hard-fought victory over Hackney Wick, moving them up to 11th in the table.

The opening 20 minutes were fairy close, with both sides probing for an opening. Chris Medina had Forest’s best chance just a few minutes in after being put through by Bradley Harris, but the Wick keeper did well to save at the front post. Abiola Tanimowo also had a good chance, but a tangle of legs when through on goal saw a free kick awarded to the visitors.

Forest did get the breakthrough soon after through. Vicente Belho was barged down in the box, with Mohamed Sagaf coolly slotting away the resulting spot-kick.
